Me:
You were right

Cactus:
Lori?
It's 3am
What happened?

Me:
I almost got raped
That happened

Cactus:
God
By Ryan?

Me:
Jup
You were right
What do you get from me?

Cactus:
We never discussed that
But I'll give you my name

Me:
No!
You won
I can't get your name now

Cactus:
Still gonna give it to you
I'm Clint
Nice to meet ya

Me:
Hey Clint
I'm Lori

Clint:
What did you do about Ryan?

Me:
Oh I kicked him in the balls and ran

Clint:
Whahaha amazing
He will feel that for a long time

Me:
I hope so

Clint:
Are you all right?

Me:
I'm good
Just need to sleep it off
Good night

Clint:
Good night Lori

Next day

Clint:
Hello

Me:
Hi!

Clint:
Excitement gone?

Me:
Partly
I feel proud I got away
Not many did

Clint:
I can't stand people who do such things

Me:
Me neither
I need to do some work
Talk later?

Clint:
If I don't have work
Yes

Me:
Awesome!
See ya

Clint:
See ya

Five hours later

Clint:
I'm beat

Me:
What did you do?

Clint:
Put some illegal traffic to a stop

Me:
Hard task?

Clint:
They weren't exactly cooperative

Me:
That's expecting
Those people are violent

Clint:
Yeah well so are we

Me:
Yeah cops are sometimes
too violent

Clint:
I'm not a cop

Me:
You're not?

Clint:
No I could never
I don't agree with half of what they do
I better work if I have a say in the matter

Me:
Sounds like an Avenger
I wish I could photograph them in action
but somehow I'm always out of town
when anything happens

Clint:
Can't you call them or something?

Me:
Do you have their numbers?
It's impossible to get through Stark Industries
and the others I don't know how to reach

Clint:
That sucks

Me:
Yeah
And when the Daily Bugle sought
someone to photograph Spider-Man
I was too late to apply

Clint:
Well maybe an opportunity will come

Me:
I doubt that
But thanks for the confidence!

Clint:
Always
Ya know
My wife needs a hand with the baby

Me:
Oh go!
Don't let me hold you up
Help the child

Clint:
We'll talk later

Me:
No no
Spend some time with your family
Then I'll call mine

Clint:
Good
Another time then

Me:
Bye Clint

Clint:
Bye Lori

I was hovering my thumb above the number of Amara. Should I call? Well, yes. I told Clint I would do it first thing today, but I was delaying it.

Whatever. I'm just going to do it.
